Update CLRMD in RemoteExecutor #8483

Open danmoseley opened 2 years ago

danmoseley commented 2 years ago

This utility, used by the libraries tests, uses clrmd for creating dumps and logging info out of them when a (child) process hangs:

https://github.com/dotnet/arcade/blob/49750c02e63d0ad3a77d035bba7498a0b1acd218/src/Microsoft.DotNet.RemoteExecutor/src/RemoteInvokeHandle.cs#L178-L211

It's using Microsoft.Diagnostics.Runtime 1.0.5 - I went to update it to the latest but I see a bunch of API has changed/gone.

@leculver I see you did a lot of work for 2.0.x -- are there improvements in 2.0.x that might be worth us updating this? Note that it’s wired up to only work on Windows right now – it would be interesting to have it work on Unix.

Otherwise I’ll leave as is.

ClrMD 2.0 does work on Unix (both linux and os x), and overall it's a much better product. I think some of those specific apis (IsThreadpool*) are missing, but IIRC that's just an oversight. If you decide to do an update of the tool I can add those APIs to 2.0 and ship a new build. There's already an issue for those missing apis...

@leculver it is working fine, so low priority, but if and when you do plug those gaps let me know and I'll make the update.

Just to note. The version of Microsoft.Diagnostics.Runtime currently used makes it impossible to use RemoteExecutor in a project referencing BenchmarkDotNet 13.0.10 due to API changes. 

System.MissingMethodException : Method not found: 'Microsoft.Diagnostics.Runtime.DataTarget Microsoft.Diagnostics.Runtime.DataTarget.AttachToProcess(Int32, UInt32)'.

Ah I forgot about this issue. It wasn't assigned to me so it wasn't on my radar. The missing pieces should be there in ClrMD 3.1. They are just under the thread's status. If I remember, I will take a look at this when I'm back from vacation on the 20th.

That would be awesome!
